Chris,



Your truck looks great, the shell looks really nice too!

I just put these on last night. 18x 8. 5, -12BS on toyo 35's

I love the black on black look. I really wanted to get the KMC Hoss Wheels, but I could not afford them. Couldn't beat the $250 out the door for these Cragars from Jegs.

Both are sweet looking rides... love the black rims with black paint.

both rides look great. . i want black wheels :{

I have the stock gray steel wheels, but I rotate in the spare. Guess what? The spare wheel is the same wheel, just black instead of gray. I can't decide at this point if I need to paint one black wheel gray, or 4 gray wheels black! My son and I both like the looks of the black one.

Straface, I bet your truck is a rocket! I like the look... .

You should get them all powdercoated black. DUH! Or even try to find an extra set somewhere, and get those powdercoated black. Now you have a set of black and a set of gray.

Yeah, it's a different look. But thats the fun part, building something different that you don't see everyday. Just wait until I get my latest exhaust creation on there. Then you'll really think it's different.

What cap is that? I think that's exactly what I'm looking for.

The front tire just rubs the mud flap at about 1/3 turn if you are turning and on the brakes or if you are backing up and turning. It rubs so lightly that its not even notice able. I have some dodge front mud flaps on that I would say are very thick (about 3/4 of an inch) that mount on the inside of the wheelwell. If I changed to one of the other styles that I have seen, that sort of mount behind the wheel well it wouldnt touch. It doesnt touch the control arms or rub anywhere else.

Very nice trucks. It's killing me that I still have the stocker tires on mine. I messed up and bought Toyo MTs and decided I'd rather have the ATs. Never mounted the MTs and need to unload them to justify buying another set.
